IMPROVEMENT IN LUBRICATING ATTACHMENTS FOROlL-BOTTLES.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 180.036, dated July 18,1876; application filed March 16,1876,

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, CHARLTON JONES, of the city, county, and State ofNew York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in LubricatingAttachments; and I hereby dcclare the-following to be a full, clear, andexactdescription thereof, reference being bad to the accompanyingdrawing, forming a part of this specification, in which- Figure l is aperspective view, showing the manner of using my device; and Fig. 2 is avertical section, showing the several parts in detail. v

The object of my invention is to produce a simple and effective deviceto be attached to an ordinary bottle or other convenient vessel foroiling machinery, or to be applied to any use whereit is desired toeject a liquid substancein small quantities.

In the accompanying drawing, A is a vessel for holding the lubricant. Bis a discharge-tube, provided on its inner or enlai'ged end with collarsCt a. The external diameter of these collars is equal to the internaldiameter of the opening in the neck of the vessel, allowance being madefor their longitudinal movement therein when the attachment is operated.O is a rubber annu: lar cap, having its lower orifice of sufficient sizeto be sprung over the neck of the vessel, and its upper opening ofsufficieut size to embrace snugly the tube B and render the connectionair-tight. This cap is secured to the tube B between projecting platesattached to said tube, to retain it in a fixed position thereon. Ahandle, D, is connected to the tube and extended to the body of thevessel, as shown, for operating it. E is a collar securedto the neck ofthe vessel, and provided with a loop or guide, through which the bandleI) passes. The device is operated by pulling down the handle, as shownin Fig.1, which produces an inward movement of the tube B, the collars aa acting as apist'on to guide the same into the vessel, and also tocompress the lubricant and force it through the dischargetubes. Theelastic cap returns the tube to its former position, all of which 'maybe readily understood by an inspection of the drawing.

Having thus fully described my invention,

what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

1. A lubricating attachment consisting of a movabledischarge-tube,provided with a piston fitting the opening in the neck ofa vessel, and an annular elastic cap, for the purpose set forth.

2. The combination of the vessel A, tube B, having pistons a a, elasticcap 0, and operatinghandle D, connected and arranged substantially asshown and described.
